The YouTube video was shocking. Several people gathered around a table containing kernels of unpopped corn. All but one placed their cell phones around the kernels. The final person punched in numbers. The phones lit, buzzed, rang and vibrated. Seconds later, the kernels popped in puffy white explosive leaps. This startling visual couldn’t have been any more clear in its message: Finally, someone has found a practical use for cell phones! For years, I resisted getting a cell phone, and for a very good reason — I was afraid people would call me. If my home phone rings, I don’t answer because it doesn’t have caller ID. If my cell phone rings, I don’t answer because it does. About a year ago, a lovely lady with whom I had been keeping company offered to add a line to her plan. I said yes. And that’s when I knew I had to marry her. Anyone who could talk me into a phone MUST be special. Also, if I married her, I wouldn’t have to call as often.
